200 mg trenbolone acetate and 28 mg estradiol benzoate per implant

SUBCUTANEOUS IMPLANTS FOR GROWING BEEF STEERS AND HEIFERS FED IN CONFINEMENT FOR SLAUGHTER

INDICATIONS FOR USE:

• For increased rate of weight gain in growing beef steers fed in confinement for slaughter and for increased rate of weight gain and improved feed efficiency in growing beef heifers fed in confinement for slaughter.

• For increased rate of weight gain for up to 200 days in growing beef steers and heifers fed in confinement for slaughter in a reimplantation program where SYNOVEX Choice® is the first implant and a SYNOVEX Choice®, SYNOVEX Plus®, or SYNOVEX® ONE Feedlot implant is administered 60 to 120 days later.

• Other than as described on the labeling, this implant is not approved for repeated implantation (reimplantation) with any other cattle ear implant ingrowing beef steers and heifers fed in confinement for slaughter as safety and effectiveness have not been evaluated.

Do not use in beef calves less than 2 months of age, dairy calves, and veal calves because effectiveness and safety have not been established.

Do not use in animals intended for subsequent breeding, or in dairy cows.

SYNOVEX® ONE Feedlot (trenbolone acetate and estradiol benzoate extended-release implants) is a growth promoting implant containing 200 mg of trenbolone acetate and 28 mg of estradiol benzoate per implant with a porous polymer film coating that extends the pay-out period of the final formulation up to 200 days. Each implant consists of 8 pellets. Ten implants are provided in each cartridge.

NOTE: Administration of a single SYNOVEX® ONE Feedlot implant or its use in a reimplantation program with a SYNOVEX Choice® implant may result in decreased marbling scores when compared to non-implanted steers and heifers.


WITHDRAWAL PERIODS AND RESIDUE WARNINGS:

No withdrawal period is required when used according to labeling.

Do not use in beef calves less than 2 months of age, dairy calves, and veal calves. A withdrawal period has not been established for this product in pre-ruminating calves.

Do not use in dairy cows or in animals intended for subsequent breeding. Use in these cattle may cause drug residues in milk and/or in calves born to these cows.

Implant pellets subcutaneously in ear only. Any other location is a violation of Federal law. Do not attempt salvage of implanted site for human or animal food.


USER SAFETY WARNINGS: Not for use in humans. Keep out of reach of children.

ANIMAL SAFETY WARNINGS: Bulling has occasionally been reported in implanted steers and heifers. Vaginal and rectal prolapse, udder development, ventral edema and elevated tailheads have occasionally been reported in heifers administered SYNOVEX® ONE Feedlot implants.

DIRECTIONS: Administer one SYNOVEX® ONE Feedlot implant (eight pellets), containing 200 mg trenbolone acetate and 28 mg estradiol benzoate, to each steer or heifer by subcutaneous implantation in the middle-third of the ear. If using in a reimplantation program, reimplant steers or heifers with a SYNOVEX® ONE Feedlot implant 60 to 120 days after administering a SYNOVEX Choice® implant.

Use only a SYNOVEX applicator. Approved implantation technique is fully described in the fold-out carton section. Never sacrifice careful, clean technique for speed of implantation.


HOW TO IMPLANT

For use with the SYNOVEX Applicator

Study the following instructions carefully, then proceed step by step, until the technique becomes routine. Many head can be implanted per hour by an experienced team, one member of which should be assigned to do nothing but the implantation. Care should be taken to insure the hands of the person administering the implant are clean and only sanitary instruments are used.

STEP 1 Loading The Applicator


Load the applicator following the directions outlined in the instruction manual accompanying each applicator. When using metal revolver style applicator, use orange adapter kit.

Additional information for the individual applicator user guides can be found at: www.growwithsynovex.com.

STEP 2 Restraint


The animal must be confined in a restraint mechanism (squeeze chute or head gate). The implant site on the back of the ear should be prepared by scrubbing with a firm bristled brush that has been soaked in a germicidal solution.

Note: If implanting horned cattle, greater safety is provided when the head is controlled by the use of a bull lead (nose tongs).

STEP 3 Implant Site


Divide the ear into three imaginary sections as illustrated. The implanted pellets should be deposited in the center one-third of the ear as shown. To accomplish this, the applicator needle should be inserted in the outer one-third of the ear as indicated by the “X” in the illustration. Implanting too close to the head may cause abnormal sexual behavior. Care should be taken to avoid severing the major arteries of the ear.

STEP 4 Insert Needle


Grasp the ear with one hand. Holding the applicator firmly with the other hand, penetrate the skin at the point shown by the “X”. Thrust the needle under the skin taking care not to penetrate the cartilage. Ease the applicator forward (toward the base of the ear) until the full needle length is beneath the skin.

STEP 5 Pellet Implantation


When the needle is completely inserted, activate the instrument by squeezing the trigger completely. Refer to instructions for individual applicator.

STEP 6 Inspection


Check the implant site. If properly administered, the implants should lie in a straight line under the skin.

Re-cock the applicator. Disinfect the applicator needle in a germicidal solution. The applicator is now ready to implant the next animal.
